I'm always up to drive to a quilt shop for more fabrics, who's along for the ride? Although, my DH doesn't seem to think I need more fabric nor stamps for that matter. We were to bring anything to do with quilts & pastels, I chose of course to make a quilt card, this is called Trip Around The World...I got the pattern from one of quilt books & used a 1/2" square punch with Studio G dp's. I adhered all the squares, used a CB flower ef & then used my sewing machine & did zig zag stitches. I added the sentiment (hoping it's ok) & buttons.
This will be going to Karin who developed pneumonia in California.
